1080p HDTVs are a harder sell than you might think

Never mind the fact that most people can’t tell the difference in sets smaller than 50 inches, never mind that there’s not much available content if you don’t own a Blu-ray player or a next-gen game console: You have to have 1080p. Or at least that’s what you might think if you listen to HD gurus. Despite the hype, the 1080p revolution hasn’t exactly taken off as quickly as you might imagine. The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) is predicting that just 34 percent of TVs sold this year will be 1080p sets.

Cosmic strings might emit cosmic sparks, answer cosmological questions

(PhysOrg.com) -- For astronomers, understanding what happened in the early moments of the universe could answer many questions in physics and astronomy. One possible player in the early universe is cosmic strings, which arise naturally in particle physics models. However, cosmic strings are quite strange hypothetical entities: they’re thinner than a proton, but can be as long as the universe. Cosmic strings might have formed as imperfections when the early universe was undergoing drastic phase changes.

Milliamp Ltd helps replace broken first generation iPhone LCD screens

iPhone might be a great phone with an awesome interface and software. However, if you are not careful enough and let your iPhone slip from your pocket, it can crack easily. Milliamp LTD has thus launched a LCD replacement program that helps users with the iPhone first generation model, who might have broken their screens. Apple had launched the first generation iPhone with the screen joined to the digitizer and hence if the screen breaks, both have to be replaced. However, the newer models don’t need the digitizer to be replaced. However, Milliamp is not associated with Apple in any manner. The cost of the replacement of the screen is high when compared to the LCD screen replacement for an iPod.

Coating Copies Microscopic Biological Surfaces

Someday, your car might have the metallic finish of some insects or the deep black of a butterfly's wing, and the reflectors might be patterned on the nanostructure of a fly's eyes, according to Penn State researchers who have developed a method to rapidly and inexpensively copy biological surface structures.

Patent: Application-Specific Windows Colourisation

IconThe US patent might be a bit daft, especially when it comes to software, but it does offer some interesting insights into what crazy things the big companies might be working on for future products. One such patent emerged today: Microsoft applied in 2005 (and was granted in 2008) a patent which describes how different windows may be coloured differently, or that they may have different transparency settings. This sounds a bit weird, but it may actually prove to be quite useful.

Anything Under That Rock on Mars? Phoenix to Take a Peek

Ever wondered what might crawl out from under a rock on Mars? The Phoenix lander is going to attempt to find out today by trying to nudge a rock aside today with its robotic arm to see what might be underneath. Engineers have developed a plan to try moving a rock on the north side of the lander. This rock, roughly the size and shape of a VHS videotape, is called "Headless." Even though the Phoenix mission has been extended for a second time – the mission is now on through December, the team feels like it's time to pull out all the stops and do as much work as possible. "We're getting towards fall in the northern plains of Mars and our sun is dropping lower day by day," said mission principal investigator Peter Smith on NPR's Science Friday.

Message in a bottle, hot dog cart and a pizza among items found in shore cleanup

VANCOUVER - A message in a bottle may be something a diehard romantic might dream of finding along Canada's coasts, but a hot-dog cart might be pushing it a bit.

The Silent Partner Speaks

From the simultaneous explosion of camera flashes in the room, one might think the special speaker at SolidWorks' press event this week in Barcelona, Spain, is a celebrity. He's the man SolidWorks CEO Jeff Ray calls "boss". As CEO of Dassault Systemes, the 3D software giant that snatched up SolidWorks in 1997, Bernard Charles has always been behind the scenes. For some reason, he didn't feel the need to make his presence felt — until now. This year, he shared the spotlight, literally, with Ray. Undoubtedly, the two consult with each other on critical matters, but their appearance together in Barcelona might be the first time they'd ever faced the industry press jointly. Hence, the attendees' rush to photograph the pair. The unprecedented sight speaks volumes; it says the relationship between SolidWorks and its owner is about to enter a

Siren Blood Curse - Playstation 3

The horror survival genre has always had a certain group of gamers following it, in fact you might even say it has a cult following (no pun intended!). After reviewing the abysmal Alone In The Dark recently I had hoped that Siren: Blood Curse might go some way to redeeming my faith in this somewhat stale sector of the gaming market.
